About this listen

Three strong women make their way in 1950s Canada

English hairdresser, Ethel, is alone after the deaths of her family and her wartime fiancé. Widow and single mother, Alice, bringing up two daughters, receives an unexpected inheritance that will transform her life. War bride, Joan, is mother to three small children with a fourth on the way and money in short supply. All are brought together in a rural Canadian town where they each try to build a future - often in spite of the men in their lives.

Each woman has a different idea of happiness. Will any or all of them achieve it?

Good story , good follow on from previous books in series but the reader made it not such a relaxing listen. Z

Reader voice was rather annoying after a while!

The change in narrator from the previous books was jarring, making it difficult to follow the characters. The English accents were terrible. Joan sounded like someone who had been presented at court rather than a girl raised in Hampshire. Also Ethels character had become whiney and slightly unbelievable. Overall disappointing.

Disappointing characters and irritating narration.
